Zhang, Wu, and Zhang [13] re-analyzed the RNA-Seq reads from two pangolins carrying coronavirus using reference-guided de novo assembly method, with Wuhan-Hu-1 as the reference genome. They also performed RNA sequencing in five archived pangolins samples from Guangdong, and assembled the genomes using WIV04, another SARS-CoV-2 genome from human, as reference genome. Using de novo assembly method, they obtained viral genome that showed 90.32% and 90.24% of whole genome identify to Wuhan-Hu-1and Bat-CoV RaTG13, respectively. RaTG13, which is a bat CoV, had 1,287 reads mapped to it, and the resulting assembly has total length of 21,925 and N50 of 1,428. ./cache/cord-305054-4d84b2g6.txt ./txt/cord-305054-4d84b2g6.txt
